How To Get Rid Of A Car And Donate It To Charity

If this year’s spring cleaning involves getting rid of an unwanted car, then you have come to the right place. Why go through the hassle of selling or trading in a vehicle when you can donate it to Wheels For Wishes, benefiting Make-A-Wish? We take care of all the work for you, and donating a car benefits for both you and a local child, including a great tax deduction for you at tax time.

Get Rid Of Your Used Car

Whether your car is a newer model or an older one, we will gladly accept your car, truck, SUV, RV, boat or motorcycle, and we will help to turn it into a wish for a local child. Whether your car is in great condition or perhaps it doesn’t run, we will pick it up or tow it away at no charge. Proceeds earned from the sale of the recycled or auctioned vehicle will benefit your local Make-A-Wish.

Getting rid of your vehicle is much easier than you may think. Donating it allows you to give your car to a great cause, and it also saves you time and money. Why deal with the stress of paying for car repairs, placing ads in the paper, driving around to show the car to potential buyers, or haggling over a sales price? Wheels For Wishes takes care of all of those details for you, and you don’t have to worry about a thing.

It’s Easy To Donate A Vehicle

Donating a vehicle is as easy as setting a bag of unwanted clothes outside your door for a charity to pick up. Wheels For Wishes will schedule your free vehicle pick-up and you don’t even have to be home when they arrive. Just make sure the keys are left in the car, and it will be picked up or towed away. Everything else will be handled during the time that your donation is made. When you speak to one of our vehicle donation representatives, they will be able to determine if you need any paperwork in order to donate your vehicle.

To donate your vehicle, first call us at 1-877-431-9474 or fill out our easy online vehicle donation form. If you make your donation online, you will be contacted within 24 hours of the next business day to schedule your free vehicle pick up. After your donation is made, we will mail out your tax deductible receipt. This can be saved and deducted from your taxes at the end of the year. Any donations we receive online before 12AM on January 1st count for that same tax year.
